RECITALS FOR VARIOUS WAR RELIEFS ARE ATTRACTING ATTENTION IN MUSICAL CIRCLES Percy Grainger Will Give Percentage of Receipts From All of His Recitals "Aida" to Be Sung to Assist Finan cing of Hygiene Department College of the City of New York. BY EMILIE FRANCES BAUER. NEW YORK, June 2. (Special.) The musical situation In New during the coming Summer will be based upon totally different lines from anything that has ever happened In this country. There will be some of the best and some of the worst music that has ever been offered' to a willing public. There will be something of a disorganization on account of what is known as the "mammoth" programmes In which the finest class of artists are always lost. Percy Grainger Is planning a certain percentage of all his recitals . to be given for war relief. He has expressed the desire to give as much as 50 per cent of all his income, while he will give many recitals of which all the pro ceeds are to Q for some patriotic pur pose. His first recital In Aeolian Hall Is already announced for November 15, 1917, when the entire proceeds will be devoted to the benefit of the British Women's Hospital, known as the "Star and Garter Home" In Richmond, Eng land, for totally disabled soldiers and sailors. Mr. Grainger Is also reaping large amounts of money by the sale of his autographed photographs at B0 cents each for the benefit of this same char ity, as well as for the Professional Classes of War Relief, the British American War Relief Fund and other Allied war relief funds. It is rumored that the beautiful high class concerts as given last season by the Civic Orchestral Society, under Walter Rothwell, will be superseded by concerts of a more popular nature In which, tba element of arousing patriotic feeling for the purpose of securing re cruits will be the principal object. It Is likewise rumored that Pierre Mon teux. the French conductor, has been engaged for this propaganda. The pro gramme is to be devoted principally to national selections, always including several times during the evening the "Marseillaise," "The Star-Spangled Ban ner" and other of the Allied national humus. The latest announcement for patri otic purposes, as also to obtain some financing for the hygiene department of the College of the City of New York, is a performance of Verdi's "Alda" In the Lewlsohn Stadium, to be given Sat urday evening. June 16. The opera will be sung by the foremost Metropolitan stars and the full company of the opera house.

WITH the month of June looming on the Immediate horizon and the annual vacational period at hand, the question naturally arises as to where and how this relaxation from the world can be most easily pro cured. At this time, and not without cause, speculation and conjecture are rife concerning the prospect of the Summer season at the various resorts throughout the state. In the minds of those who are wont to spend a portion of the Summer at the beach or mountain retreat, the question is "Shall we. - or shall we not? and in the minds of the hun dreds of resort proprietors and busi ness people of the' Summer sections the same conditions cause the query. Will they, or will they not?" Not singly, as heretofore, but many-fold are the direct bearing conditions that affect the seasonal tourist traffic. Fine Weather Predicted. ' A reference to ye time-honored al manac Imparts the knowledge that a hot season will be the lot of the Northwestern folk. This plebeian, but withal practical, guide to the meteor olosrv phases of the coming season banishes with one fell swoop the usual bugbear of vacationist and resort pro prietor alike. The late Spring, the re tarded dfy weather and with the rec ords of previous years to guide, the evidence is conclusive that a Summer of Intense warmth will soon be at hand. June will start the ball rolling with a - spell of hot weather lasting several days. If the word of the prog ntlcator can be relied upon. But the question of most Importance this year Is the result of the Amer ican entrance Into the war. This phase of the situation is one that will really be the deciding issue of whether or not the Oregon Summer season will be a successful one. The prosperity In the land, the absence of unemploy ment and the well-to-do condition of the majority of our people at thie time bespeaks an unusual run on the beach and mountain watering places. The Intense enthusiasm, the present period of feverish activity, will de mand Its toll of rest and recreation and to this end the resorts of Oregon and the Northwest are being prepared and put in shape to accommodate vast crowds of Summer residents. Tillamook Resorts Many. With their appeal lying mainly In accessibility to the metropolis of the state and In variety of recreational features, Tillamook County beach and mountain resorts will this season claim the attention of the hundreds who are acquainted with its multitude of beau tiful outing spots, and the other hun dreds -who will seek a convenient and suitable Summer residence. Since the advent of the railway along the shore In Tillamook County the Summer re- aorta av& sprung up. and, flourished In almost continuous order: and the splendid beaches, the beautiful moun tain views and the varied pleasures of the location are being called more and more to the attention of the seeker of Summer rest. The excellent auto road leading through Willamlna and down througn the fertile valleys on the west side of the Coast Range passes through ter ritory replete with attractions for the lover of the great outdoors. Near Bea ver and Hemlock and up the Nestucca and tributary rivers are some of the finest fishing points In the state, and here It is that the angler meets-with his heart's desire for game trout. This section of the county Is fast becoming famous for Its unexcelled fishing ad vantages, and many motoring parties, headed for the beach resorts, never get beyond the multitude of inviting camping nooks that abound near the clear mountain streams, with their plentltude of wary game. Places Easily Reached. Good roads. Including several miles of hard surface, lead into Tillamook, the county seat and largest city in the county. Tillamook is the branching out place for the suto traffic enter, lng the county. Modern hotels and adjacent camping spots make this place a mecca for the anglers of the -Northwest, for within easy travel dis tance are five of the most Important fishing streams of the state. Th Miami, the Kilchis. the Wilson, th Trask and the Tillamook rivers, with fishing streams, are contiguous to Til--lamook, and sportsmen have their; choice of location for their fly casting. From Tillamook train and motor service on the Southern 1'acmc mate . easy going to me spienaors ot tne re - . sorts on the ' Garibaldi and Brlorhtort Is conveniently reached by auto stage' and wagon road. Bay ocean, the "play ground of the Northwest" and one of' the best-equipped and most modern') resorts In the United states. Is reached, by & water trip of short duration. Con tracts for auto roadways to this resort have been recently let by the County Court and It is expected that, the opening of the Summer season will see this much-needed highway completed. SCORPION BITE PAINFUL Hood River Lad Writes of Experi ence at Fort Sam Houston. Two programmes will be given each day at the big tent, which will be on the Multnomah County Fairgrounds. and a Junior Chautauqua -will assemble evorjr lorenoon tor me cniiaren. HOOD RIVER. Or., June 2. (Spe cial.) In a letter to Harry T. De Witt, a local garage man and his former em ployer. Malcolm Button, son of Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Button, who is at Fort Sam Houston. Tex., In training for the Aviation Corps, tells of a. painful ei perlence following the sting of a scorpion. "The sting put me !n bed." said young Button, "and let me tell you. I was a pretty sick boy for several days. "One day I was lying there In camp, wondering when I would again see some home folks, and as I glanced down the line of men engaged In drill Just outside the tent whom should I see but Mark Moe and Luclan Carson. It certainly cheered me up to see these boys from home." Toung Carson, son of Chief of Police J. K. Carson, and young Moe, son of A. D. Moe. publisher of the Hood River Glacier, enlisted in the Aviation Corps several weeks after Button's enlistment. Grcsham's Chautauqua Starts Soon. GRESHAM. Or.. June 2. (Special.)

The County Court advertised the Job as' a unit of the $362,000 bond Issue system, but received no offers. The la bor conditions throughout the state were held accountable for the back wardness of contractors in bidding. At a subsequent meeting the court decided to build the highway on force account, borrowing the equipment of Grant Smith & Co. Big Bean Crop Is Expectdd. GREELEY, Colo.. May 23.
